“Cave Enterprises Operations LLC has been operating restaurants in Wisconsin since 2014, and we are excited to have the opportunity to bring the Burger King brand back to Stevens Point,” Kayser said.

The previous Burger King in Stevens Point at 1616 Academy Ave. closed 15 years ago.

Plans for the restaurant, which stands between Goodwill and Stevens Point Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, were approved by the City Plan Commission in March and construction on the store started earlier this summer.
